Watch hockey star’s shocked reaction after accidentally spitting on someone

Bernier immediately realised what he had done, and his reaction made him look like a guilty schoolboy.

Canadian ice-hockey goalie Jonathan Bernier accidentally did something very rude at a recent game, and his priceless reaction has sent the clip viral.

He was taking a rest during a break in play in the game between his side Toronto Maple Leafs and Tampa Bay Lightning.

As many athletes tend to do during games he spat and unfortunately connected with a member of the crew who was cleaning the ice.

Bernier immediately realised what he had done - his half-shocked, half-embarrassed reaction making him look like a guilty schoolboy.

He owned up to his gaffe - meeting the crew member after to apologise.

FYI Bernier feels so badly he's asked to meet the guy post-game to apologize & give him a signed stick. #classy https://t.co/nLFvEkruJN

And in his defence - the dancing astronaut on his left had done a fair job of obstructing his view.
